@ tech_sword
You won't get any good e-book reader's in that price range...
Look here - *www.amazon.com/Kindle-Wireless-Rea...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1252042222&pf_rd_i=507846

Amazon sells it for 259$ = 11,676 INR add at least 1.5K to 2K as taxes..You are good to go with it...

i read books on an ancient monochrome Palm palmtop (m500 ). it cost me 35$. this won't be available in india, nor is it a gud reader as compared to kindle or sony's reader. BUT i have and continue to do so, read many many books on it. search for it , see if it appeals to you.

Kindle is awesome.

Btw, whichever you buy, DO NOT forget to join www.mobileread.com and download Calibre Ebook Management software. there is just no comparison. As you can tell I am a fan boy :D
